Sabbath's - Wendell Berry
VI
We travelers, walking to the sun, can't see
Ahead, but looking back, the very light
That blinded us shows us the way we came,
Along which blessings now appear, risen
As if from sightlessness to sight, and we,
By blessing brightly lit, keep going toward
That blessed light that yet to us is dark.
II
When we convene again
to understand the world,
The first speaker will again
point silently out the window
at the hillside in its season,
sunlit, under the snow,
and we will nod silently,
and silently stand and go.

Your photos are, not surprisingly, wonderful.
Thanks for sharing them

this BLOG STUFF. You've been constantly on my mind the past few days...
great thoughts. Hang in with those food fantasies! I'm excited for you.
A courageous decision, for sure...but it will all pay off. LOTS OF LUV, Sandy
P.S. Beautiful fall weather here...we need some SNOW!!
Very encouraged to hear the progression of all things Peter / gastrointestinal looking positive. Broth & yogurt for now.... but bud..bud...buddy when you are at full steam and have that abdominal garbage grinder working at maximum capacity again it'll be time for spaghetti & garlic bread! I think that if you slurp them one by one they'll speed down past all your new plumbing and not disrupt things too much! Sending some serious positive energy to both you and Julie... I even did the "wave" like they do at the baseball games.... just not the same though without the other thousands of people. I just did it in my living room actually , raised up my hands and cheered "PETER WOOHOO" and then sat back down. I have no way of knowing if the neighbors followed suit and did it too and if it made it out and to the next neighborhood but thats where that whole faith thing comes into play. I guess it's the thought that counts right Peter? Like Tinkerbell once said "if less is more then there's no end to me Peter Pan!" One day at a time I am thrilled to see & hear that you are improving....we will both learn to smile as we trudge the recovery road to happy destiny.
Big Hugs 4 now.... PEACEFUL PAINFREE MOMENTS ARE SOMETIMES THE BEST GIFTS THE DAY HAS TO OFFER US....AND SO WE LIVE LIFE ON LIFES TERMS UNTIL PAIN SEEKS WORK ELSEWHERE...THAT WILL BE A HAPPY TIME FOR US BOTH!
KEN YOUR DYSLEXIC BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER
We can't wait to have our kids and all the little boys here...so much fun to have the wide-eyed belief in Santa in our lives again for awhile! Jim's mom and dad will be with us too...Mother in the mountains but we will catch up with her after Christmas. Tell Evan that December is a wonderful time to be married...we did it on the 21st :0)
DO HOPE everyday gets better for you! Enjoy your pictures here so much too! Love, Susie
Love and Merry Christmas too!! Susie and Jim
